The Daughter of God

We talk about the immaculate conception as if it happened only once, and will continue to happen only once. I made a new history that reflects and represents women instead of putting one man on a pedestal.

Not many know about Julia. She was written the margins, lost to history in a book entitled: Working Women before Men Found Pens by Anonymous, the most famous female writer of all time.

Julia made God coffee every morning, she tutored her older brother in math. “Overshadowed by a sibling” was the first ever recorded understandment, in reference to her.

We were all too busy giving up carbs, meat and sustenance for her brother and father, She was trying to feed us the whole time.

We were too engaged in praying to the most high, to notice the golden shimmer in the heavens that we passively named “the Son”, and as her tears fall upon our umbrellas, her light obstructed, she tried to understand why we would name it after her brother.

God sacrificed his lamb and down came Jesus, he sacrificed his ugly duckling, and out waddled Julia, all graceful knees and silence at the dinner table as God tried to tell her to “Do something about those curls.”

Julia talked her father down when he tried to drown all of humanity, she pleaded, saying Eve was framed, telling a stone-silent Dad that he made a mistake when he broke a rib and called it woman, that he didn’t need a day of rest because “You never let me have one”
